This is this time of the year again, FOSDEM will take place in Brussels next week-end. This is one of my favourite free software event, lots of interesting talks, lots of interesting people, and lots of energy everywhere. This year, it looks like it will be the best FOSDEM ever! More devrooms, more than 400 talks, more everything!

For the impatient people running Fedora 16 but who still want to get an aperçu of Boxes, today's your lucky day! I set up a preview repository with all the needed package to install Boxes on Fedora 16.
If you want to try it, download this file to /etc/yum.repos.d and then run yum install gnome-boxes && yum update

To go back to your previous setup, you can either use the convenient yum history, or remove/etc/yum.repos.d/gnome-boxes-preview.repo and useyum remove libvirt-glib && yum distro-sync

Keep in mind that this is a new application still in heavy development, so you're likely to find bugs and missing features. But I'm sure you will enjoy it nonetheless :)

Feel free to join us in #boxes on irc.gnome.org if you have any issues, or if you just want to chat with us.
